Journalism Conference sponsored 
by [MORE]." 

That's what the poster said. 

"So where do WE fit into all of 
this?" I asked Larry Bensky, a panel 
participant, early in February as 
KPFA prepared its coverage of the 
three-day event. (See Thurs, 6 & 20). 

"Who knows?" he sighed. 

We'd been asked by the confer- 
ence organizers to tape the whole 
shebang as the "medium of record"— 
the official chroniclers of what could 
turn out to be a fascinating political 
encounter, or else an insufferably self- 
indulgent exercise in media mastur- 
bation. 

[MORE] , a clever piece of 
journalism published in the East, is 
winning a strong reputation for its 



exposes of the mass media's dirty 
linen. Clever too are its West Coast 
conference organizers, who managed 
to corral everyone from Mayor Alioto 
to the Black Panther paper's David 
Dubois for a host of panels on all the 
Major Issues. 

Fr'instance, KPFA manager Bensky 
is to match wits with KGO's 
Van Amberg (among others) on "Lo- 
cal Broadcast Journalism: News or 
Happy Talk?" And Public Affairs co- 
director Anita Frankel is to try to be 
tactful and coherent alongside The 
Wall Street Journal's bureau chief 
Herb Lawson and other experts on 
"Covering the Depression: The Journ- 
alism of Survival." 

Other conferees include Newsroom 
Rollin Post, Ramparts ex-editor Bob 
Scheer, Womensports' Rosalie Wright, 
KSAN's Danice Bordette, The Exam- 
iner's William R Hearst, III. KPFK 
manager Will Lewis, and many, many 
more. 

We'll distill the best and the bright- 
est for you in two parts this month, 
and if we've left out good stuff, we'll 
bring ypu [MORE] in April. 



A TRIBUTE TO WOMEN COMPOSERS 

This month the KPFA Music De- 
partment salutes women composers 
from the 16th Century to 1975. 
Germaine Tailleferre, the French 
composer who was a member of the 
famous Croupe Les Six around 1920, 
will discuss her career with Charles 
Amirkhanian on Ode to Gravity, 
Wed. 19 at 8:30 pm. Now in her 80s, 
she was interviewed by Charles in 
Paris, December 1973. 

One of the few women composers 
active in Holland is Tera de Marez 
Oyens, and she will be heard talking 
about her ten years of activity in the 
field of electronic music Wednesday 5, 
8:30 pm. 

Gail Gove, Susan Ohori and Nirmal 
Daniere will present special programs 
on Hysterisis (a Bay Area women's 
collective), Anna Lockwood and many 
other composers on Old Songs De- 
ranged, Saturday 8 (International 
Women's Day) at 8 am to 12 Noon. 

The Morning Concert on Tuesday 
1 1 will introduce music by the Welsh 
composer Grace Williams. And on 



Thursday 13, you'll hear music by 
20th Century composers Fannie 
Charles Dillon, Louise Talma, Julia 
Perry, Grazyna Bacewicz, Maria Aster, 
Peggy Glanville-Hicks, Beth Anderson 
and Nini Bulterys. Around March 17, 
conductor Antonia Brico will drop in 
during the Morning Concert to speak 
about her appearance as guest con- 
ductor with the Oakland Symphony 
March 19 in Berkeley. 

On Wednesday 26, the Morning 
Concert again highlights women, this 
time three young composers from 
Mills College's Center for Contempor- 
ary Music— Peg Ahrens, Virgina 
Quesada and Pat Kelley. On Mon. 31 
listen for the Bay Area premiere of a 
new Genesis LP of piano music by 
Mrs. H.H.A. Beach (Amy Marcey 
Cheney, 1867-1944). 

Our limited selection of programs 
this month barely touches on the 
riches of important Western classical 
music composed by women. We hope 
these programs whet your appetite for 
more and that you will help us be- 
come more informed on this subject 
with your letters and comments. 



Third World 



A special program on the history and development of Latin American Cinema with 
emphasis on the cinema of Brazil, Mexico and Argentina. The program includes a discussion 
of how these countries have developed their cinematographic industry as well as how they 
and other Latin American countries have been affected by the US and European film industry 



throughout the history of Latin America. The program features discussion of Cine Libera- 
tion La Hora de los Homos (Argentina), Lucia Memorias del Subdesarollo (Cuba), and El 
Chacal de Nahueltoro (Chile). The program was produced by the Latin America Awakens 
Collective and the Third World Department at KPFA.

The KPFA Folio is not sold, it is sent free to each subscriber to the station. The 
program listings are published every month as a service to subscribers who support 
our non-profit, noncommercial radio station at the annual rate of $30.00 (student 
and low-income rates: $1 S.00 a year). All donations are tax deductible and checks 
should be made payable to "Pacifica-KPFA." KPFA broadcasts up to 24 hours a 
day, seven days a week (except for the hours of 1 to 8 am each Saturday morning 
when the transmitter is shut down for maintenance) with a power of 59,000 watts 
at 94.1 MHz. KPFB broadcasts at 89.3 MHz. simultaneously with KPFA at a pow- 
er of 1 50 watts to areas of Berkeley which do not receive KPFA. KPFA is owned 
and operated by the Pacifica Foundation, which also owns and operates stations 
WBA1 fm 99.5 in New York, KPFK fm 90.7 in Los Angeles and KPFT fm 90 in 
Houston. Pactlca Foundation was established in 1946 and is incorporated under 
the laws of the State of California. Second class postage paid at Berkeley, Ca. 



A Note 

to Subscribers 



Billing 

If you phone in a pledge, are paying for your subscription in installments, or 
are a Bill of the Month Subscriber, the computer will bill you when it thinks you 
are due. Please wait for a bill. Returning the bill with your payment will insure 
crediting your account will be done properly, and will save us the labor/expense 
of looking up your records. Sending in a payment without a bill or renewal form 
costs more to process than the cost of printing and mailing the form to you. 
Also, if you use the return envelope provided, your payment will be routed di- 
rectly to Subscriptions, and will be less likely to sit for hours or days in the limbo 
of the Public Service Announcements box. 

If you do not receive a bill when you think you should, call us or drop us a 
card about it, and we'll look up your records. 

Moving 

Our subscribers seem to be particularly transient. If you want your Folios to 
follow you when you move, you have to keep us informed. Attach the computer- 
printed label from your last Folio at your old address to a change of address card 
or the appropriate coupon below. Add your new address (INCLUDING ZIP 
CODE), and mail it to KPFA, 2207 Shattuck Avenue, Berkeley, CA 94704. If 
we receive your new address by the 1 5th of the month, we can practically guar- 
antee that you'll receive the next month's Folio on time and at the right address. 

Mailings, Renewals and Updated Procedures 

We usually do mailing between the 20th and the 25th. If you have been on 
the mailing list, have not moved recently and your subscription has not expired, 
you should receive your Folio by the first of the month. If you don't, contact 
your local post office about delivery. If that doesn't help, give us a call. 

First renewal notices are sent out two months before subscriptions are due to 
expire. You will receive another notice the next month, and a third notice (and 
your last Folio) around the beginning of the month your subscription expires. 
If you still haven't gotten around to renewing, we will send notices (but no 
Folios) for two more months to remind you. 

We do our "month-end" computer run on the third or fourth Saturday of 
each month, and this is when Folio address labels, bills and renewal notices are 
printed. Renewals, payments and address changes received before the run will 
be reflected. Otherwise, they won't go into effect until the next month. As a 
general rule, anything that comes in by the 15th will be processed in time for 
the run. 

If you have any questions about any of this, drop us a card or call.

Larry 
Bensky 

Station Notes 



After a five-month nationwide 
search, KPFA has a new station 
manager. He is Larry Bensky, who 
has been associated with the station 
as a program participant since 1969, 
and was on the KPFA staff from 
September 1971 to November 1973. 

Bensky is thirty-seven years 
old, a native of New York City and 
a graduate of Yale University. He 
came to San Francisco in 1968 to 
work as Managing Editor of Ramparts 
Magazine, after being an editor at the 
New York Times for two years. Be- 
fore that, he had been European cor- 
respondent for a number of publica- 
tions and was Paris editor of the 
literary magazine. The Paris Review, 
from 1964 through 1966. 

He has a record of participation 
in Civil Rights and anti-war activities 
dating back to the early sixties, and 
he served as co-chairman of the Paris 
American Committee to End the 
Viet-Nam war, as well as on the plan- 
ning staffs for the mass anti-war 
Mobilizations in New York in 1966 
and Washington in 1967. 

Since his arrival in the Bay 
Area, Bensky has been co-founder of 
a San Francisco weekly newspaper 
(Dock of the Bay), news reporter 
and news director for KSAN, a mem- 
ber of the air staff collective at KMPX 
and project coordinator for the Com- 
mittee for Open Media— in addition 
to his work at KPFA, which has in- 
cluded music, public affairs and news 
programming. 

When I left the paid staff of 
KPFA in November, 1973, I wrote 
an article in the Folio which was as 
critical of KPFA's direction and 
structure as I felt I could be and 
still be supportive of the institution. 
It is no secret to KPFA listen- 
ers and supporters (the categories 
are unfortunately not always inter- 
changeable) that the crisis which I 
saw forming in the station's tenden- 
cies a year and a half ago eventually 
resulted in something which contained 
great risks: a strike and suspension 
of broadcasting, accompanied by 
severe internal restructuring. 

My selection as manager is a 
culmination of a part of that process, 
and the mechanisms invented during 
the strike for dealing with admini- 
strative inequities are the same mech- 
anisms that hired me. 




This means several things to 
me. First, I have a responsibility to 
and relationship with the staff which 
is far removed from traditional con- 
cepts of "management" either at 
KPFA or anywhere else. Second, 
for whatever result it may bring, 
"top-down" decision-making at 
KPFA is a thing of the past. The 
mechanisms of consultation and co- 
operation which enabled the strike 
to be won by the workers at KPFA 
have been preserved and must be 
respected and strengthened. 

These are, of course, abstrac- 
tions. In future issues of the Folio 
I'll be writing at some length about 
specifics. For now, under deadline 
pressure and with my tenure as man- 
ager only four days old, I'd like to 
mention a few of the outstanding 
problems I see and some solutions 
already in motion for dealing with 
them. 

*Not enough people listen to 
KPFA. We have no idea how many 
people do listen (commercial rating 
services are not interested in non- 
commercial stations and are not par- 
ticularly trustworthy anyway), but 
we know enough about media habits 
to guess that our outreach is limited. 
This is in large part due to the fact 
that we have had virtually no pro- 
motion or publicity outside of the 
Folio and occasional listings in news- 
papers. In order to improve this 
situation, KPFA has hired two co- 
directors for our resurrected Pro- 
motion Department. They are: 
Nashira Ntosha, formerly with the 
KQED "Teach" program and KPOO 
in San Francisco; and Sean O'Hare 
who has been active with the Irish 
Republican Clubs of Northern 
California. You will be hearing more 
from them in the future. . . 

* Closely allied with our limited 
outreach is our limited income. A 
dearth of consistent management— 
we've been lurching from one crisis 
to another, it seems, for the past four 
years at least— has made it impossible 
for mailings, community solicitations 
and fund-raising events to take place 
with any consistency. I have promised 
to concentrate nearly exclusively on 
the financial-rather than administra- 
tive or programming— aspects of the 
station. 



*The requirements of our com- 
plex and ambitious programming 
schedule and our very limited staff 
often result in overwork which, when 
combined with poor working condi- 
tions (our equipment reflects our 
financial condition, for example) , 
produces at least inefficiency and at 
worst irascibility and ultimately. . . 
terminal ga-ga, a disease not yet 
medically defined but at least dor- 
mant in most KPFA workers. I favor 
the concept of people working the 
hours they're paid for and believe 
that those people kind enough to 
contribute their services without pay 
should limit those services so as to 
increase their efficiency. KPFA does 
more live music, poetry and plays, 
public affairs programming and a 
more ambitious newscast than any 
radio station in Northern California, 
with a tenth of most budgets and a 
much smaller staff. We have to learn 
to limit our energies so we can con- 
tinue to provide excellence without 
losing our sanity in the process. 

*We have insufficient regular 
contact with listeners, many of whom 
have ideas and energies to contribute 
in our support. A beginning has been 
made, thanks of Catherine Webb, in 
organizing various regional support 
groups. I'll be working with her on 
these, as will our promotion co- 
directors. Please write or phone us 
if you are interested! 

Two final words. KPFA and 
all its listeners owe a great deal of 
thanks to Warren Van Orden, our 
Business Manager, who filled in as 
Acting Manager while the cumber- 
some process of selecting a perman- 
ent manager was going on. His con- 
tinued loyalty and hard work are 
either a hitherto undiscovered vari- 
ety of terminal ga-ga (see above) or 
an indication that our good friends 
get even better the longer they're 
here. 

Lastly, in the words of a num- 
ber of other recently annointed 
leaders, I would like to promise that 
mine will be an open administration, 
that I'm willing and anxious to speak 
to you or correspond with you about 
subjects of importance to all of us.

The quality of health care in the San

there is no medical record system for the

conditions in the jails and why very little 
is being done to improve the medical care 
there.

YARDBIRD MEANS BUSINESS! 



We plan to do our part in ending the tyranny over 
American CULTURAL Values by European and European- 
American arts and all of "the exotics" they import to show 
up our homegrown "nations"— "nations" whose arts are 
viewed collectively as "the devil" by the Establishment. 

In 1845 CULTURAL NATIONALISTS termed "mobocratic 
rowdies" by snobs of the UPPER TEN, rioted on Astor 
Place in New York over insults directed at American 
actors by "arrogant" British actors. Thirty-one people were 
killed and over 150 injured. (Anthony Burgess, go home.) 

The situation is unchanged. Today taxpayers finance 
Kenneth Clark who touts the achievements of Europeans 
over those of third world people RIGHT ON TV! American 
taxpayers' money is footing the Royal Shakespeare Co. to 
the tune of a quarter of a million dollars while our theatre 
goes begging. The Royal Ballet performs its grand 
jetes while our dancers can't buy no shoes. They hand us 
Mozart and Strauss but won't give us no Boogie. 




YARDBIRD READER 
volume 3 




I remember this. This is my passport 
photo. This was taken in 1904. 1 jnit came 
from the village and this was taken in 
Bong Kong. See? My head is shaved. And 
I had a pigtail... And he was saying, look 
at the.. .Hi gaw jerk doy nh! Look at the 
little bird! James Wong Howe 



When we began publishing in 1972 as America's only 
annual multi-cultural Reader they told us that it wouldn't 
work; they said that we were better off in jail or on wel- 
fare or making speeches at rallies for them so they'd love 
us. They told us that they already had a black poet and 
that we didn't have no schoolin in complicated things like 
graphics and layout. 

We proved them wrong and now are taking orders for 
our third issue, THE ASIAN AMERICAN ISSUE, edited by 
Frank Chin, Jeffery Chan, Lawson Inada, and Shawn Wong 
which includes leading contributors to the ASIAN- 
AMERICAN RENAISSANCE. American people. Our folks. 
Chinamen and them. Not a single Flower Drum Song in 
the bunch! 

YARDBIRD believes that a political revolution means 
nothing if hearts and minds are unchanged. Join in a real 
revolution by supporting YARDBIRD, the Reader of a 
New America! 

Sell your soul to the devil. Ishmael Reed
